OUT OF PROPORTION

MARIT BERG

The title of my exhibit is in reference to our realistic expectations of objects in space. I begin my creative process working ideas through a series of drawings in my sketchbook. By playing with scale and perspective I create conflicting depths, in an effort to take familiar objects out of context. By effecting expectations of space, I feel freer to explore the narrative in the work. I might also work some color studies, but color choices are typically decided in the process of the painting or print.

 

My subject matter is inspired by 16th century Dutch vanitas paintings, a theme previously explored in Roman times. Vanitas paintings are a meditation on the vanities of life; the passing time; and a reminder of the inevitability of death. I am also interested in the Mexican surrealist painters of the early part of the 20th century, particularly Carrington, Varo, and Tichenor. These artists painted intriguing combinations of objects and imaginary figures in landscapes or enclosed spaces. Like these artists, I present a narrative in an imagined space, asking the viewer to consider ideas from different perspectives and contexts.
